The New Republic is Turning Into a Bloodbath

Whoa! Editors are resigning en masse at TNR.

See Rod Dreher here and here.

I saw this yesterday from Jonathan Chait..

As someone inherently inclined toward all things old school, I do think the demise of the small circulation but thoughtful political magazine is unfortunate, but I’m more concerned about Middle America News than I am TNR. I realize that the economics just don’t work anymore, but clickbait page view generating political websites are potentially poisonous to rational debate. They are going to have to be countered with labor of love websites such as this, among other things.
